Album Notes & Community Reviews

The Louisiana quintet's debut full-length is a notoriously chaotic collision of extreme metal, dizzying mathcore, and sudden detours into electronic dance music and lounge jazz. Frontwoman Krysta Cameron anchors the erratic compositions with a versatile vocal performance that violently shifts between brutal death growls and theatrical clean singing. The release deeply polarized audiences but proved highly influential within the late-2000s internet-driven scene.
